  • the process includes heating the first sheet of glass material, the separation material and the second sheet of glass material together while supported by the shaping frame such that central regions of the first and second sheets of glass material deform downward into the open central cavity of the shaping frame.
  • the separation material comprises a solid lubricating material that decreases friction between the first and second sheets of glass material.
  • the first sheet of glass material has an average thickness, T1, and the second sheet of glass material has an average thickness, T2. T1 is different from T2.
  • the first sheet of glass material is formed from a first glass composition and the second sheet of glass material is formed from a second glass composition different from the first glass composition, and the first glass composition has a viscosity during heating that is different from a viscosity of the second glass composition during heating.
  • An additional embodiment of the disclosure relates to a curved glass laminate article made by any of the method(s) and/or system(s) disclosed herein.
  • various embodiments of a system and method for shaping, bending or sagging a stack of glass sheets for formation of a curved, glass laminate article are shown and described.
  • conventional processes for forming curved, laminated glass articles involve heating a pair of stacked glass plates or sheets on a forming ring to near the softening temperature of the glass until the glass has sagged to the desired shape and depth.
  • a separation material is used as a separation layer between the two glass sheets preventing the glass sheets being bonded /fused together during heating.
  • co-sagging processes have a variety of advantages (e.g., improving shape matching between the glass sheets that will form the laminate, efficient use of heating equipment, process throughput, etc.), co-sagging often produces optical defects known in the industry as bending dots.
  • bending dot formation is believed to increase as the contact pressure between the two glass sheets is increased during co-sagging.
  • This increased contact pressure during co-sagging may be a function of viscosity and/or thickness differentials between the two glass sheets in the stacked arrangement.
  • Increased contact pressure is believed to stem from the different shapes that different glass sheets may form during sagging. As shown in FIG. 6 , when a sheet of glass is sagged under gravity by itself, a thicker glass sheet 100 will produce a more parabolic shape. While, as shown in FIG.
  • a thinner glass sheet 102 will produce a "bath tub" like shape where curvature is greatest near the edges and is reduced near the center.
  • contact pressure is increased near the edges when a thin ply is sagged on top of a thick ply, and contact pressure is increased near the center when a thick ply is sagged on top of a thin ply.
  • This increase in contact pressure is thought to contribute to the creation of bending dot defects through increasing imprintation of the separation material particles into the glass surfaces.
  • the difference in sag shape illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7 generally will increase as the thickness difference and the viscosity difference between the two glass sheets increases, and thus, the sensitivity to bending dot formation also appears to increases as the thickness difference and the viscosity difference between the two glass sheets increases.
  • Applicant has identified various separation materials, separation layer structures and/or separation material application processes that decrease or eliminate bending dot formation, even with large differences in glass sheet thickness and glass sheet viscosities. For example, Applicant has identified that lubricating materials that decrease friction between the two glass sheets decreases/eliminates bending dot formations. As a specific example, Applicant has identified that separation powders having lamellar structure and/or having a high lubricity decreases/eliminates bending dot formation. In particular, Applicant has found that a separation material comprising hexagonal boron nitrite particles and/or graphite particles decreases/eliminates bending dot formation.
  • Applicant has determined that applying the separation material through a spraying process (e.g., spraying a liquid containing the separation material, flame pyrolysis, etc.) also appears to decrease/eliminate bending dot formation.
  • a spraying process e.g., spraying a liquid containing the separation material, flame pyrolysis, etc.
  • spray application of the separation material may result in a uniform, low thickness layer of separation material that evenly distributes the contact pressure in a way that avoids bending dot formation.
  • system 10 includes one or more sheet of glass material, shown as a pair of glass sheets 12 and 14, supported by a shaping frame, shown as bending ring 16.
  • bending ring 16 may have a wide variety of shapes selected based on the shape of the glass sheets to be supported, and use of the term ring does not necessarily denote a circular shape.
  • a separation material 18 is applied to at least one surface of glass sheet 12 and/or of glass sheet 14. In one specific embodiment, separation material 18 is applied to an upper surface of lower glass sheet 12. In other embodiments, separation material 18 is applied to a lower surface of glass sheet 14. In such embodiments, separation material 18 may be applied to a surface of glass sheet 12 and/or 14 when the glass sheets are positioned in any orientation, and the terms upper and lower refer to the orientation of surfaces when supported for bending on ring 16.
  • separation material 18 is a material that prevents sheets 12 and 14 from bonding together during the heating stages of the curve formation, and as will be discussed in more detail below, separation material 18 is formed from a material and/or is applied in a manner that Applicant has identified as being effective at reducing bending dot formation.
  • bending ring 16 includes a support wall, shown as sidewall 20, and a bottom wall 22.
  • Sidewall 20 extends upward and away from bottom wall 22.
  • the radially inward facing surface 24 of sidewall 20 defines an open central region or cavity 26, and an upward facing surface of bottom wall 22 defines the lower end of cavity 26.
  • a radially outward facing surface 25 is opposite of inward facing surface 24.
  • Separation material 18 is applied to the upper surface of glass sheet 12. Upper glass sheet 14 is placed onto separation material 18 such that a lower surface of upper glass sheet 14 is in contact with separation material 18. As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2 , in this arrangement, separation material 18 acts as a barrier between glass layers 12 and 14 which prevents the glass sheets 12 and 14 from bonding together at the high temperatures during the sagging process.
  • an outer region 28 of glass sheet 12 adjacent the outer perimeter edge 30 of the glass sheet is placed into contact with a support surface, shown as upward facing surface 32, of bending ring 16.
  • a support surface shown as upward facing surface 32, of bending ring 16.
  • glass sheets 12 and 14 are both supported by the contact between upward facing surface 32 with glass sheet 12 such that central regions 34 of glass sheets 12 and 14 are supported over central cavity 26.
  • bending ring 16, supported glass sheets 12 and 14 and separation material 18 are moved into a heating station 40, such as an oven or serial indexing lehr.
  • a heating station 40 glass sheets 12 and 14, separation material 18 and bending ring 16 are heated (e.g., to near or at the softening temperature of the glass material of glass sheets 12 and 14) while glass sheets 12 and 14 are supported on bending ring 16.
  • a shaping force such as the downward force 42, causes central region 34 of glass sheets 12 and 14 to deform or sag downward into central cavity 26 of bending ring 16.
  • the downward force is provided by gravity.
  • the downward force 42 may be provided via air pressure (e.g., creating a vacuum on the convex side of glass sheets 12 and 14, blowing air on the concave side of glass sheets 14) or through a contact-based molding machine (e.g., co-pressing equipment).
  • cavity 26 is a mold cavity, and in such embodiments, inward facing surface 24 of sidewall 20 and the upward facing surface of bottom wall 22 defines a shape against which glass sheets 12 and 14 pressed to form a desired curved shape. Regardless of the source of the deforming force, this procedure results in glass sheets 12 and 14 having a generally curved shape, as represented in FIG. 3 .
  • bending ring 16 along with the supported glass sheets 12 and/or 14 are then cooled to room temperature.
  • the shaped, deformed or curved glass sheets 12 and 14 are allowed to cool, fixing glass sheets 12 and 14 into the curved shape created within heating station 40.
  • curved glass sheets 12 and 14 are removed from bending ring 16 and another set of flat glass sheets are placed onto bending ring 16, and the shaping process is repeated.
  • the now curved glass sheets 12 and 14 are bonded together (e.g., typically via a polymer interlayer) into the final curved glass, laminate article.
  • glass sheets 12 and 14 may be particularly susceptible to bending dot formation, at least if a conventional separation material were used, due to large thickness differences and/or material differences between glass sheets 12 and 14.
  • separation material 18 enables co-sagging of glass sheets 12 and 14 even with large thickness differentials.
  • glass sheet 12 has a thickness, shown as T1
  • glass sheet 14 has a thickness, shown as T2.
  • T1 is different from T2, and specifically T1 is greater than T2.
  • T1 is at least 2.5 times greater than T2, and in other embodiments, T2 is at least 2.5 times greater than T1.
  • T1 is between 1.5 mm and 4 mm, and T2 is between 0.3 mm and 1 mm, and in even more specific embodiments, T2 is less than 0.6 mm.
  • T1 is 1.6 mm and T2 is .55 mm; T1 is 2.1 mm and T2 is .55 mm; T1 is 2.1 mm and T2 is 0.7 mm; T1 is 2.1 mm and T2 is 0.5 mm; T1 is 2.5 mm and T2 is 0.7 mm.
  • the thicker glass sheet 12 is located below the thinner glass sheet 14 when stacked on bending ring 16.
  • some sources have indicated that placing the thicker sheet above the thinner sheet on the bending ring will decrease bending dot formation.
  • Applicant has determined that this prior approach is not particularly effective at reducing bending dot formation, particularly when large sheet thickness differentials and/or large viscosity differences are present, and the separation materials discussed herein have been determined to be effective at reducing or eliminating bending dot formation in these cases.
  • the separation material innovations discussed herein may be utilized in co-sagging arrangements where the thinner glass sheet 14 is located below thicker glass sheet 12 in the stack supported by bending ring 16.
  • the separation materials discussed herein have been determined to be particularly suitable for co-sagging glass sheets 12 and 14 formed from different glass materials. As noted above, it is believed that when glass sheets of different materials are co-sagged together, viscosity differences between the two materials at the co-sagging temperature results in increased contact pressures in the regions where sagging shape is different (e.g., see FIGS. 6 and 7 ). Applicant has determined that the separation material innovations discussed herein decrease or eliminate bending dot formation even when co-sagging glass sheets of different materials.
  • glass sheet 12 is formed from a first glass material/composition
  • glass sheet 14 is formed from a second glass material/composition different from the first material.
  • the first glass material has a viscosity that is different from the viscosity of the second glass material during heating within heating station 40.
  • the first glass material of sheet 12 is a soda lime glass
  • the second glass material of sheet 14 is an alkali aluminosilicate glass composition or an alkali aluminoborosilicate glass composition. Additional exemplary materials for glass sheets 12 and 14 are identified in detail below.
  • separation material 18 is a particulate material that is applied to the upper surface of glass sheet 12 forming a layer of particular material 50 as shown in FIG. 4 .
  • separation material 18 is formed from a solid lubricating material that decreases friction between glass sheet 12 and glass sheet 14. Without wishing to be bound by theory, Applicant's testing has indicated that decreasing friction between glass sheets 12 and 14 during co-sagging decreases bending dot formation.
  • the solid lubricating material has a lamellar structure, and specifically is an inorganic lubricating material having a lamellar structure.
  • the solid lubricating material is a hexagonal boron nitride material and/or a graphite material. These lamellar, inorganic solid lubricants are believed to have lubricity that are higher than conventional separation materials.
  • separation material 18 may be a CaCO 3 material, a silica-based material, a hydrated magnesium silicate material, and/or a molybdenum disulfide material.
  • HBN hexagonal boron nitride
  • the layered structure of HBN allows sliding movement of the parallel planes. Weak bonding between the planes provides low shear strength in the direction of the sliding movement but high compression strength in the direction perpendicular to the sliding movement.
  • HBN forms a lubrication film strongly adhered to the substrate surface. The lubrication film provides good wear resistance and seizure resistance (compatibility).
  • Boron nitride is a chemically inert substance. It is non-reactive to most acids, alkalis, solvents and non-wetted by molten aluminum, magnesium, molten salts and glass.
  • Hexagonal boron nitride retains its lubrication properties up to 5000 °F (2760 °C) in inert or reducing environment and up to 1600 °F (870 °C) in oxidizing atmosphere.
  • boron nitride has high thermal conductivity.
  • graphite and/or molybdenum disulfide may be used as solid lubricants for separation material 18.
  • these materials are effective lubricant additives due to their lamellar structure. The lamellas orient parallel to the surface in the direction of motion. Even between highly loaded stationary surfaces, the lamellar structure of these materials is able to prevent contact between glass sheets 12 and 14. In the direction of motion, the lamellas easily shear over each other resulting in a low friction.
  • separation material 18 may be other solid lubricating materials including polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE), talc, calcium fluoride, cerium fluoride and tungsten disulfide.
  • separation material 18 may be a friction or contact pressure reducing sheet of material such as a cloth sheet. In other embodiments, separation material 18 may be a thick layer of CaCO 3 material. In contrast to conventional understanding, Applicant has found that increasing thickness of a CaCO 3 separation material layer 50 actually reduces bending dot formation.
  • separation material 18 may be applied to the upper surface of glass sheet 12 via a spraying process. Applicant believes that utilizing a spraying process (as opposed to roll-based powder applicators typically used in conventional processes) results in a thin, yet highly uniform layer of separation material 18 that decreases bending dot formation.
